Bewildered expat.
Living in France twenty years,
can't master the kiss!
A face approaches...
First question is, "How many?"
then, "Where should I start?"
Do I kiss your lips
or suck on your pearl earring?
How loud should I smooch?
What does a kiss mean?
Our eternal passion?
Or, hello, goodbye.
Il bacio di morte?
How do I know the difference?
Lover or capo?
Declare kissing day?
A tempting invitation –
whom should I target?
Or just kiss the air,
make duckface selfies with friends –
post them on Facebook.
